When Cameroon's players were to perform the obligatory covid 19 tests at the hotel in Valencia last week, four of the players did not show up.
They have not been seen since and Cameroon's national team has called for the players via the police.
Now a player from Iran's national team has also disappeared, something both the International Handball Federation and the Spanish World Cup organizer confirm for the Danish TV channel.
Jaume Fort, head of the World Cup's organizing committee, says it is Shaghayegh Bapiri.
- It was discovered yesterday (Tuesday) and we have informed the police, as we did in the case of the four from Cameroon.
There is not much more we can do, he says to TV2.
